Sussan Ley (Farrer, Liberal Party, Shadow Assistant Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the Treasurer’s letter dated 10 May about the government’s advertising campaign decision made on 20 April asking for it to be exempted from the usual guidelines. Between 20 April and 10 May, were the government’s mining ads referred to the government’s Independent Communications Committee? If not, why not? Prime Minister, if the ads were referred, why were they rejected and, if they were not rejected, why was an exemption necessary?
